Remote Mail Service
I’m working on a project that requires people to be able to work remotely. That means everything has to be digital and scanned into the computer. Most of the information already is scanned, but what do we do about the things that aren’t digital?
I just found out about Remote Control Mail from Mark Zamora of A GeorgiaLawyer. What does it do? You have your mail sent to a P.O. Box in any of 20 diifferent cities and then they will send you an e-mail that looks like this:
Remote Control Mail will then give you the choice of recycling, shredding, scanning and then shredding, forwarding the hard copy to your office, or storing the hard copy at your office. They’re used to handling high volume for coprorate consumers and fees are very low.
You can handle your e-mail and regular mail at the same time and with the same ease, forwarding documents or replying to them quickly and easily.
We’re going to use it initially for our medical records. Neat stuff.
we are using it for meds as well. Let's compare notes and see how you like it
Is the goal virtual office? My assistant does this now. I'm not sure of the benefit and also would worry about potential attorney-client waiver issues. Second, I wondered what your thoughts are Dave on the recent ECF article in SC Lawyer that warns of remote pdf conversion sites that can mine data. Could that be a concern here also?
